THE amnesty committee who are
conducting the movement to secure
new trial for the Chicago Anarch-
lists talk very differently now from
what they did when the confirmation
of their sentence was announced. The
first petition that they passed around
for signatures were full of threats
against the members of the court in
case the men should be hanged. Now
they advise their followers that the
slightest disturbance, the striking of
a police officer, or any petty occur
renee that would cause q reaction.
would be fatal. Paul Grotkau, the
Milwaukee agitator, wants to make in
cendiary speeches in Chicago, and the
committee are making every effort to
keep him in the background. The
fact that their friends are already un-
der the shadow of the galIows has had
a SOLDERING effect.

Washington who was received with
such unbounded enthusiasm and cor
diality as has been shown President
Cleveland in his journey westward and
during his stay in St Louis. His cor
diality is one unmistakable evidence
of his popularity with the masses and
the strong hold he has upon the con-
fidence of the business men of the
country. This is the Presidents first
visit to the West and South and he
will go back to Washington more
fully impressed with the greatness of
our country and the great RESPONSE
bilities resting upon him as its Chief
Magistrate. Mr.. Cleveland was born
under lucky star and there is mag
netism about him that draws men to
him and he will return to the Nations
capital stronger man in the affection
of the people than he ever was before
and they win entertain no propo-
sitions in 1883 for new man to sue
coed him.

A TEXAS "colonel'' has been spend.

few days ago, being in need of some
money, he applied to a Broadway
bank to cash draft. "What is your
manner" asked the paying teller. "Col-
onel Sumter Blank, sir, of Austin,
Travis county, Texas" "You will have
to be identified, colonel" This was
something the colonel had not taken
into consideration. He knew of no
body who could identify him, and was
about to leave the bank when a hap
Ply thought occurred to him. He
reached into his breast pocket and
brought out photograph of himself
and holding it under the nose of the
bank official, said, "There, sir, | guess
that settles it. )" "0f course, that's

The general enthusiasm with which
President Cleveland is saluted al
every point reached on his western
tour is a deserved and fitting tribute
to the First Magistrate and an evil
dence OF the popularity he has won by
his clean and impartial administration
The ovation he received at Indianapo
lis was an honor to the town that gave
it, and the only regret is that the
gentleman who was elected to the sec.
ond place on the ticket with the Pres
ident was not there to share the hon.
ors with him in the State of his adop.
ton.

We have often seen justice repre-

damsel who had charge of the scales
at Boise should consult an ophthal-

mercy is not very well strained, and

week, at Boise, Peter Waldo, charged
with the larceny of $40 from team

through Pocatello last week. He had
not visited that town for about TWEEN,

on account of the Improvements that

development on account of being
cramped to the limit of the forty acres

The Cleveland, (0) Plaindealer says
all the abuse that Foraker, Fairchild,
futile & Co. can heap upon President
Cleveland cannot change the good
opinion that people have formed of our
Chief Executive. The American peo-
pie recognize in the President a man
who has absolutely clean hands, who
conducts the public business on strict
ly business principles. His honesty
and purity of motives cannot be ques-
toned, and when such wordy dema-
gogues as Foraker, futile & Co. assail
him they only show that they are ut
terly incapable to fathom that public
sentiment which recognizes in Grover
Cleveland faithful public servant.
Small men like those we have men,
toned may gain little temporary no
toriety for themselves by their assaults
but the people know that President
Cleveland has been thoroughly the
President of the whole people, hence
they repose in him the most unlimited
confidence, and they are content that
he shall continue to administer the
proudest public trust on earth I'm
pregnable in the sincerity of his con-
yictions the masses of the voters of
the country know that he cannot be
swayed from the path that he deems
right and expedient.

JEFFERsoNyILL, May 20.-A sensational
cowhlding affair took place here last night
The parties to the affair were Mrs. Nellie
Bagot the divorced wife of w. +. Bagot
who is now in the Clark County Jail await
ing commitment to the State Prison on q
sentence of two years for forgery. and
Mitchell ID. Beckwith, the West End re-
porter Of the Louisville Post, but who re-
sides in Jacksonville. Ever since Bagot
created a sensation by running away with
Georgia Twoomey, sixteen-y car old girl,
on the LIST of last August, the gossips have
been busy circulating derogatory reports
concerning Mrs. Bagot. 1t recently came
to the ears of Mrs Bagot that Bsckwith
had stated to several parties that he had
seen her coming out of an assignation
house in Louisville. The lady became
so incensed ever the matter that she re-.
solved to take the law into her own hands
and to that emil, on "Wednesday afternoon,
purchased cowhide. Wednesday night
Mrs. Bsgot was on the street looking for
Beckwith, but failed to find him. Yester-
day afternoon she addressed a note to him,
and asked him to call at her residence, No.
119 Ohio avenue. The note was handed to
him and he proceeded to her house. She
was waiting Tor him and admitted him to
the parlor, ard asked HIM to be seated in a
large rockingham near q dressing-case.
Mrs. Bagot, being very frail lady of q
nervous temperament became greatly ex-
cited at the sight of Beckwith. and could
hardly express herself as to why she had
desired his presence at her home. She
managed, however, to tell him what she had
heard, and demanded an explanation. He
replied that he mad heard the report, but did
not know anything about the truth of it. At
this juncture she stepped behind Bsckwith
and took from the dressiDg-case the cow
hide, with which she commenced striking
him over the face from behind. Before he
could realize what was going on, several
blows had been dealt, when he sprang from
the chair and clutched the whip, but did
not succeed in wrenching it from the wo-
mans grasp. During the tussle, Mrs. Bagot
told Beckwith that there were others in
Jacksonville who would receive the same
dose if they did not cease their talk. Beck
with released his bold on the whip and
started out the door, followed by Mrs.
Bagot. He remarked to her that he had
not said enough to deserve the lashing.
She replied, "You lie," and again struck
him in the face. He hurriedly lett. and,
by back ways, reached his boarding house,
but was not to be found in the city last
night. Parties who saw him going across a
common, in the vicinity of the old grave
yard, state that at that time he was hold
ing handkerchief to the side of his face,

HoUGHToN, May 2O.-The fire at Lake
Linden is now under control. The flames
were first noticed issuing from the second
story Of Neuman & Trelease's general mer-
chsndise store. Everything was as dry as
finder, and despite the heroic efforts of
firemen and citizens the spread of the
flames was very rapid. In less than two
hours after the first alarm the
entire business portion of the
town, from the starting point of
the fire to the public school-house building,
was in ashes. Every saloon but one,
and every store, except that occupied by
f. Weber q Co. as a meat market, was de-
stroyed. The loss is terrible one to Lake
Linden, and conservative judges place the
peeunlary damage at $1,5OO,OOO. The in
surance is probably not less than
$4,000. No lives were lost,
as far as known. The property of the Calu.
met & Hecla Co., escaped without damage.
Both Houghton and Hancocks fire com
panies responded promptly to the call for
assistance and did great work. Nearly
every family were turned out and report
great loss of household goods and surplus
clothing; the flames reaching out with such
rapidity that householders quickly real
lied that their only safety was in instant

east OF Uniondale, discovered what proved
to be the remains of said Huffman strewn
along the track. His head was picked up
in one place, his neck in another, aud the
legs, arms, thigh joints and body in others.
He was evidently run over by the fast ex-

time. A more horribly mangled body is
seldom seen. Coroner Thoma held an in.
quest on the remains. The deceased left
no family but q wife, from whom he has
long lived separate. He was about thirty,

He escaped down q side street, however,

those at Toronto.

correspondents awaiting Mr.. O'Brien's ar

peared on the opposite side of the street,
many with clubs and sticks in their hands,
there was no interference by the police.
They were allowed to hiss and
groan, until Mr.. O'Brien came out.
When the latter did come out, the police
men, instead of making circle around
him, abandoned him. and left him to the
tender mercies of the yelling Orangemen,
who dashed upon him. The policemen
were the first to scatter when the stone
hrowing commenced.
At the Burnett House the crowd COL

Just before his death Beecher wrote:
1--WE are going home. Men shiver at the
idea that they are going to die; but this
world is only a nest. We are scarcely
Matched out of it here. We do not know
ourselves. We have strange feelings that
in us Is crying for the immortal. As in
the plight the child, waking with some
vague and nameless terror, cries out to ex-
press its fear and dread, and its cry is in
terpreted in the mothers heart, who runs
to the child and lays her hand upon it and
quiets it TO sleep again, so God hears our
disturbances, trials and tribulations of life.
Do you not suppose that he who is good
ness itself cares for you2 Do you not suppose
that he whose royal name Is Love has less
sympathy for you than the mother has for
her babe? Let the world rock. If the foot
of God is on the cradle, fear not. Look up,
take courage, hope and hope TO the end"
